Share three ways to overcome perfectionism

Completion is more important than perfection.

Perfectionist: I don't know when to start. We get nervous when we do things. We want to do everything before we start, just like saying, when I'm ready, things will be done perfectly!

Want to lose weight and keep fit, search a bunch of targeted professional weight-loss exercise courses on the Internet, then buy sportswear, professional running shoes, yoga mats and various auxiliary equipment, and find a song list suitable for sports listening. The circle of friends set up one flag after another, but did not start to act. I want to start operating from the media, buy professional equipment, and learn various courses such as writing, shooting and editing. And open an account on the whole network platform, but I haven't uploaded a work.

In order to change myself, I found a bunch of self-discipline quotations online, downloaded various list templates, carefully listed my daily plans, and set the early alarm clock one after another, but when I turned off the first alarm clock in the morning, I put the plan on the shelf. Finally, I always tell myself that I'm not ready!

Before you start doing something, you are wondering whether you can do it well. It is far more important to finish one thing than to do it perfectly.

A perfectionist solution

Method 1: Don't worry, just ask yourself if you want to. I want to write an article, and I'm thinking about whether my topic is good or not. Nobody reads this content. Is it too boring to use this material and the writing language is not rich? If you want to make a cake, you are wondering whether the quality of this material is good or not, and whether the weight of this tutorial is enough. What if it doesn't taste good? If you throw it away, it will be wasted. Various excuses are similar to laziness. I haven't written for a long time, and I haven't taken the eggs out of the refrigerator.

At this time, you just need to ask yourself whether I want it or not. The answer is yes, then stop all imagination.

Method 2: Do it if you want. Open your word document and type the first word, whether it is well written or not. Open your refrigerator and take out the eggs, whether the cake is delicious or not. You don't know whether readers like it or not until the article is finished, what knowledge you lack, and whether your reading accumulation on weekdays is enough. Only when you take the cake out of the oven will you know whether it is sweet enough or not, and whether the amount of each part is enough, so whether the cake is delicious or not.

Only when you have done it, will you know that you can do it.

Method 3: Say something silently before you do it. I'm just an ordinary person, and it's normal not to be perfect. They are ordinary people, and there is no way to do everything perfectly. It is certainly good to prepare in advance, which will make us get twice the result with half the effort, but it is not a necessary condition to ensure that we can absolutely finish things. From what we have accomplished, we should carefully analyze and sum up our experience. Every time we do it, every progress is the right way to perfection.

You have accomplished many things, much better than others who are still dreaming. Believe that completion is great, better than utopian perfectionism!
